oh and you gotta love when a 14 year old is placed in handcuffs and taken away to a station 45min away when the parents were standing right there to pick him up from the weekly community sponsored dance and all he was doing was defending himself against a local bully after he'd been struck down. The cops wandered in, saw two people fighting, took no statements form the witnesses, handcuffed them (14 YEARS OLD now) and took them away just because they wanted to get home early that night to get drunk (true)....
...oh and btw, that kid was my little brother.
And there was nothing you can do against the county...my dad was going to sue them, but since our school was in that county we would have to go through severe harassment from the police officers in that county everytime we went over to the border to school, to the store or to a friends house. The law can be overbearing sometimes...
just venting with this post i guess....
